JACOB SHARPE has finally secured his
release from Ludlow street jail. His
health is broken and his lease on life ia
evidently very precarious. Pending his
new trial he will enjoy the comforts OF
his own fireside and the care and kind
ness OF home that seems to be very
devotedly attached to him. 1t does not
seem that the necessity existed for the
rigor with which he has been treated.
His offence was new one under the
statute. Never in fact considered an
offense heretofore, and point was
strained In his conviction. 1t will be a
perpetual warning to others to keep
clear OF any monetary interference with
members Of municipal councils and per-
hsps aid in rendering public contractors a
little cleaner handed. That whole Doodle
business teaches lesson which in these
days OF haste to be ricn it were not I'M
wise to heed. There are few, however
much they may detest the dishonesty Of
municipal jobbery and the cOrruptiOns
OF the Broadway franchise act who Will
not in their true feelings rejoice that old
man Sharpe is even temporarily outside
OF his prison walls. He was the last

The more thoughtful journals Of all
sections and OF al shades of opinion are
protesting against the present tendency
OF legislative bodies 20 burden the stat
ute books with great, and 10 many in
stances useless, body of laws. SIM
pliCity in the laws is above all things TO
be desired. These laws should be very
comprehensive and general in their Gp-
plication, leaving the citizen 10 large
exercise OF liberty and the courts to a
large latitude OF construction. Nothing
is gained, but very much is lost by at
tempting to regulate the minutia OF
conduct by statutory enaotments. If
several of the states, Texas included,
were TO have no legislative session for
years and two-thirds Of the existing
laws were wiped of the statute books,
the peoples morals would not suffer,
the peace OF our communities would not
be invaded and good government would
be the gamer. Laws multiplied do lot
multiply obedienCes. Texas has album
dsnt proof Of this in her own enact
ments.
